THE team from defence giant BAE Systems have been celebrating victory in the Junior Leaders Field Gun Competition held at HMS Collingwood in Fareham.

They were the fastest to run, dismantle, reassemble and fire their gun over an obstacle course at the naval base.

Among the vanquished were teams from Fareham College, Network Rail, the sea cadets, HMS Sultan and HMS Collingwood.

The competition is the junior version of the Royal Navy Field Gun Competition, which was held at HMS Collingwood earlier this month and used to be a popular feature of the Royal Tournament in London.
